Matt Wellsted – visualisation and concept artist in the international theme park sector

Young Open 2019 Judge

Matt currently works as a visualisation and concept artist in the international theme park sector with contracts that take him from Fantasy Island in Skegness on the east coast of the UK, to Muskoka Woods summer camp for kids on the east coast of Canada.

Locally he has worked with many businesses, including extensive work at Longleat Safari and Adventure Park and currently is the illustrator behind the varied Independent Market posters.

If you live in Frome then there’s a chance you’ve seen some his design work, whether it’s the St Catherine’s arch at the bottom of Stony Street or the giant brick ’23’ in the beer garden of the venue with the same name.

Matt lives in Frome with his wife, Kate, and their two children, Daisy and Herbie.
